Introduction

The Bangladesh Dairy Market 2013
Report Highlights:
Bangladesh dairy consumption is growing, albeit from relatively low per-capita levels. While local milk production has increased, from 1.78 million metric tons in 2001/02 to 3.46 million metric tons in 2011/12, domestic supplies are still lagging, and as a result Bangladesh is importing more dairy products. Dairy imports are regulated by the Bangladesh Import Policy Order 2009-2012.
